Thanks for contributing to RNB blog, Cynthia and Micheal.....
We saw 2 of the cubs again this morning (same time 8:30am) and took 3 short videos. (More to come!) Sunday was the first sighting of these cubs. They're so much smaller than the video shows. The cubs look younger than 5 months from Internet study I've done this week. We saw an adult lynx 2 yrs ago and regularly see deer, raccoons, bats, possums, rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels, and many species of birds. The cubs never saw us, but decided to head into the greenbelt. One of the cubs strolled toward the west side of our home, but turned back maybe out of fear of exploring out of its comfort zone. We'd feel comfortable stating we live on Education Hill on the Hartman park greenbelt. Our bunny population as declined in the last 2 weeks. We had 5 bunnies and Momma that would visit daily to eat bird food. I haven't seen any bunnies or rabbits for a week prior to the cub sighting. Yes, you can use our full name for credits and can use our facebook page or email. Thank you for your interest. Eagerly await to view the cubs again!
Watch the KIRO 7 interview with the Ashley's at their home...and more cub clips!

Fascinating! I had no idea there were bobcats living in this area. And the Ashleys say that they even saw a lynx 2 years ago!
